Additionally, Level 2 EV Chargers will be installed at Churchill Square (Rowan Street), Metrobus, City Hall, on Duckworth Street and at the new H.G.R. Mews Community Centre (once construction is complete).
"We are very pleased to highlight this action towards being a sustainable city," said Councillor Ian Froude, lead for Sustainability. "As we strive towards achieving net zero by 2050, placing charging stations in public spaces makes it easier for the community to contribute to the community plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions."
In August 2021, Council approved a plan to increase access to public charging stations, funded by Pollution Probe through the Natural Resources Canada Zero Emissions Vehicle Infrastructure Program (ZEVIP). Chargers will also be installed at City facilities to enable the City to convert its light duty fleet to electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles.
"We are proud to support the City of St. John''s in the further expansion of the EV charging network, making it easier for people to choose an EV by offering more options of places to charge," said Krista Langthorne, Director, Customer Relations and Energy Solutions, Newfoundland Power. "We are planning today for tomorrow and by working together, we are creating a more sustainable and greener future for our province."
A nominal hourly fee of $1.50 will be charged for EV Charger use; the Charger fee will be applied in addition to parking fees (where applicable). This is automatically applied through PayByPhone. These EV Charger fees will help the City support the program and they will be reviewed annually to ensure maintenance and charging costs are covered. City EV Charging Stations are for EVs to park while being physically connected to the chargers, up to a maximum of 3 hours. Vehicles that are not physically connected to the charger are subject to enforcement.

In 2021, we completed the province''s first fast charging network for EVs. Today, there are 33 fast charging stations from St. John''s to Labrador City. EV drivers can now drive across the province knowing that they have access to fast chargers at convenient locations on the TCH and around Newfoundland and Labrador.
The electric vehicle (EV) chargers in our network are made by ChargePoint. To use these chargers, you''ll need to sign up for a free ChargePoint account, and have a ChargePoint card or a mobile device with the ChargePoint app installed.
Things like using continuous air conditioning or heating, very cold weather, and steep hills can decrease your range. Even with fast chargers located every 70 km on the TCH, it''s important to think about your trip in advance so you can better plan your stops along the way.
You can expect an efficient charge with the power to fast-charge your EV to 80% in under an hour – seeing you back on the road in no time! Each of our charging stations has:
A 62.5kW Direct Current Fast Charger where you can charge your EV with about 100 km of range every 15 minutes. That''s enough power to fast-charge most EVs to 80% in less than an hour.
COST OF CHARGINGFor Level 3 chargers (62.5 kW) the cost to charge is $15/hour. For Level 2 chargers (7.2 kW) the cost to charge is $1.50/hour. Partial hours will be billed per minute (on a prorated basis). These rates are comparable to the cost to charge on other networks in Atlantic Canada.
Funding for the network was provided by the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador, Newfoundland and Labrador Hydro, and the Government of Canada through Natural Resources Canada''s Electric Vehicle and Alternative Fuel Infrastructure Deployment Initiative.
